It’s no surprise that everything’s costing a little more these days and Little Caesars isn’t immune. In fact, their ‘Hot-N-Ready Pizza’ that used to cost $5 is costing a little more as well. The “new and improved” version of this popular pizza is now $5.55. And before you get too upset, consider that this is the first increase in the price in 25 years and it comes with 33% more pepperoni.
For reference, Little Caesars’ Hot-N-Ready Pizza was first introduced back in 2001 and was priced so low because their pizza was already made for take-out – it didn’t need to be pre-ordered.
Now? The new Hot-N-Ready Pizza will be on the menu permanently, and while it’ll stick at $5.55 in many places – it may not stay that way. The chain says that the price could actually be higher in some cities after the “limited time” national promotion ends.
